Lyrics Kate Bush - Rocket Man

She packed my bags last night pre-flight,
Zero hour, nine a.m.
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then

I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife.
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight

And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
Till touch down brings me round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home.
Oh, no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone

Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids,
In fact it's cold as hell
And there's no one there to raise them if you did

And all this science, I don't understand
It's just my job, five days a week
A rocket man, a rocket man

And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
Till touch down brings me round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home.
Oh, no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone

And I think it's gonna be a long, long time...
